SMITH & WESSON Airlite TI
.38 SPL +P
Description:
Guns Listing ID: 563085
Model: 342 AirLite Ti
Caliber: .38 Special +P
Frame/Construction: Scandium/aluminum alloy frame and barrel shroud; titanium cylinder; stainless steel barrel liner. These materials result in a remarkably light revolver.
Weight: Approximately 10.8–12 oz (0.68–0.75 lbs) unloaded.
Barrel Length: Around 1.75–1.875 inches.
Action: Hammerless (DAO), J-frame, 5-round cylinder. Design & Rarity
Manufactured briefly in 1999, often regarded as S&W’s lightest centerfire revolver.
Collectible, often seen with variants like boot grips or original boxes. +P Capability vs. Shootability
The Model 342 is officially rated for .38 Special +P, but due to its ultra-light weight, shooting +P triggers very sharp recoil, making it potentially uncomfortable for many shooters.
Many owners prefer using standard pressure or lighter loads to balance performance with comfort and control.
Only use jacketed bullets with +P ammo—this helps maintain bullet integrity and prevents slugs from being pulled forward by the recoil, which can cause cylinder binding.
Suggested safer alternatives for everyday carry include lighter standard loads with reliable expansion:
Federal 110 gr Personal Defense — non +P, favored for reduced recoil.
Winchester 110 gr Silvertip, Pro Load 110 gr Tactical — similar appeal.
On ammunition forums, Speer Gold Dot 135 gr +P short-barrel ammo and FBI 158 gr LSWC +P are frequently recommended due to their consistent crimping and performance.
